Property information · Hotelbeds

Perched high in the Otways above the Great Ocean Road, overlooking Bass Strait, Chris's Beacon Point Restaurant and Villas is a haven for discerning travelers. Renowned for its warm hospitality, Chris's has become an icon of the Great Ocean Road. A passion for Southern European cuisine, combined with the freshest local produce, has earned the restaurant international acclaim. Just steps from the restaurant, Chris's Villas offer year-round accommodation. Many diners choose to stay the night after indulging in a meal and fine wine. Located above Skenes Creek, the recently renovated villas boast stunning ocean views from their elevated position and floor-to-ceiling windows. The contemporary, self-contained villas feature modern fittings and a private balcony. A complimentary continental breakfast is included and served in Chris's Restaurant from Melbourne Cup Day to Easter, and provided in your villa during the off-season. This has proven to be a favorite amenity among our guests.
